This isn't a tip, but looking for general info, do any of you guy's use a capped Pipe strapped to the roof rack of your car to transport your rods around the country, any tips on size, construction, security etc?
Also thinking of permanently securing one under the mobile home to store them at weekends as the wife get a little upset when I bring them into the mobile home with the bait still on them

, and no matter where I store them they are always at risk of being crushed or broken. Storage options please?
